The hidden power!

Chapter 6

“Sorry guys, there is a small change in the story, I decided to change the name “Mareta” to “Marietta”.”

Marietta’s Pov

I felt myself go numb. Well! Someone had just spoken through my brain. What exactly am i? I felt myself slip to the floor. I put a hand on my forehead that was now filled with sweat.

I am just too tired of this. I sighed. Mom, who are you, did you really abandon me? I felt the tears trickle down my face. I remembered what I had seen before. I closed my eyes. I was sure it was still inside my memory. Someone shouting “Arthur, we gave birth to a human, throw her off!”

More tears ran down my cheeks. My eyes were swollen and red. I looked at the watch on my wrist. It was still green in color. Since it was on my hands from the time when I was born, I am sure it has some connection to this crazy business.

I held in a deep breath and dried my eyes with my pink handkerchief. I should be stronger, from now on no tears Marietta, I told myself. I looked at the watch with interest. It had a round surface, with 3 buttons on each of the right and left side. It had a big button above it.

I tapped it gently. Nothing happened. “UGHH” I screamed.

I felt so irritated. I can’t do anything. Will I just stay sitting here forever?

“OUCH” I screamed. The watch was gripping tightly on my hand. The grip hardened as every second passed by. “GERROF” I screamed. It was turning very painful.

The watch had turned blue now. There were writing on its back. It looked as if some invisible pen was drawing on it. I felt myself shaking.

Is this magic?

I started pulling it off, though I fully knew this was hopeless.

A sound erupted from it. I jumped. “I thought you were a lot smarter than this Mrs. Marietta.”

“Who… w…whoo are you??” I said shakily.

“Oh my bad, I should’ve introduced myself. My name is Jonson Barbary, the head of paranormal center.”

“Sorry, did I just hear you were the head of paranormal?” I screamed into the watch.

“Indeed I did. I did not want to make this call with you, but I’ve got some news about you.”

“Hmm?”

“I have just sent to you Barbarica, who seemed to have failed the mission. Her fate was ofcourse decided. “

I felt anger boiling inside me.

“What do you mean you’ve sent her? More importantly, YOU WEREN’T THE ONE WHO ORDERED HER DEATH WERE YOU?” I shouted into the watch.

“Oh, my Marcus killed her? Poor her. I just ordered him to make her suffer, but he seemed to understand what I wanted deep inside my heart.”

“OY, YOU. I BELIEVE OUR KIND CAN’T KILL EACH OTHER CAN THEY?”

“Well, well, well, I understand that the information I received from Marcus wasn’t wrong after all. I am very pleased. Indeed Miss, they can’t.”

“Then how in the world did he?”

“You don’t seem to realize your position right now, do you? You’ve been asking a lot of questions, and I forgot to mention I hate being questioned, by the likes of you.”

“HOW DARE YOU. YOU KILLED BARBARICA, ILL KILL YOU!”

“I see, so your experiment has gone right. I am afraid you will have to be dead.” He said in an as-a-matter-of-fact tone.

I felt my insides writhing with anger.

 “JUST WAIT YOU! WHY DON’T YOU FACE ME? ARE YOU SO SCARED?”I shouted.

“How dare you talk to me in this way? You don’t realize what you are doing girl. You wouldn’t like me to send you all hypolamtisis to your place would you?”

I had no idea what he was talking about so I decided to take him on.

“It would be my pleasure.” I said calmly.

“Then I would like to see how you would take on this one.” He said mischievously.

“Take on what?”

The watch turned blue again. I knew this meant he had closed the conversation. More importantly I knew this meant that some disaster is coming at me now.

I am not so strong in real life am i?

Suddenly, the watch turned green again. I wondered what was coming.

“Oh I forgot to tell you my little princess that you should be a little lean with this hypolamtisis. I wouldn’t like to see your tears trickle down your eyes when you kill him.”

“Wha?”

The watch turned green again. “TCH.. THAT LITTLE!”

What did he mean? I had already decided to use my power. Did he read my mind? I don’t like this. If my mind is being read then how am I supposed to think of tactics?

The watched turned red.

Another grumpy voice erupted from the watch.

“I am on my way girl, get ready for me. MUAHAHAHAHA.” His laugh sounded so stupid and didn’t match his voice.

Huh? Why amn’t I supposed to kill him? Why would I listen to that thing anyways? What if he had said that to try to finish me off faster?

I looked at the spot on my right palm. I should decide and fast.

The watch turned blue.

“STOP CALLING ME WOULD YOU! I HAVE NO INTENTON OF LISTENING TO YOU ANY LONGER AND I DON’T TRUST A SINGLE WORD FROM YOUR MOUTH!” I shouted before he had had any chance to speak.

“Look girl I am in a hurry, my name is Flint Argus. Run! Run away! You won’t be able to fight the hypolamtisis who is on his way to you. He has far more greater power than Barbarica. Just run! If he does come to you, don’t kill him. Just don’t! Trust me!” The voice was soft and kind, but had a wary and hurried tone. I felt warmth spreading through me when I listened to him.

Suddenly I came back to my senses.

“Why should I trust you eh? If you were one of “my kind” then I won’t! I am an experiment blab la bla that went right they say, I think you would say that soon too. How am I supposed to defend myself if I don’t use my power. How on earth can you all talk to me from this watch eh?”

I had lots of burning questions that I wanted to ask.

“Your experiment went right???”

“Err... Yeah, kind of..!” I said surprised the news hadn’t reach him yet.

“Just don’t kill him! You will be broken if you do, trust me. You can defend yourself by plasm…..m…” The voice became unclear. Someone was shouting.

“HELLO??” there was no reply. I felt something bad had happened to him. Why should I care anyways?

The watch turned green again, the conversation ended.

Suddenly, I heard the front door of the house explode. I ran to the window and look to see what happened.

He was here. The most horrifying creature I have every seen. Just look of him gave me the shivers.

“Oh Allah help me please” I thought deeply. I felt myself shaking. His red eyes, his swollen lips.

He looked right into my eyes. I felt myself passing out from shock.
